Hello,
Is there a way to make an abstraction that has one inlet that takes both signal and control messages (like osc~, e.g., or fiddle~ which gets audio and setting info, etc.)? It's part of the API for objects; it seems to me there ought to be a way to do this with abstractions as well. I'm envisioning an inlet object that splits signal and control into two outlets which can be parsed from there. Something that uses the signal and control values to do the same thing (as in osc~) might be difficult to implement in an abstraction, but having signal and optional settings messages go to the same inlet would add to the abstraction-as-object nature of PD... does it exist?
Thanks,
Matt
